“What we require is not a formal return to tradition and religion, but a rereading, a reinterpretation, of our history that can illuminate the present and pave the way to a better future. For example, if we delve more deeply into ancient Egyptian and African civilisations we will discover the humanistic elements that were prevalent in many areas of life. Women enjoyed a high status and rights, which they later lost when class patriarchal society became the prevalent social system.”
― Nawal El Saadawi

“Not that I am (I think) in much danger of ceasing to believe in God. The real danger is of coming to believe such dreadful things about Him. The conclusion I dread is not 'So there's no God after all,' but 'So this is what God's really like. Deceive yourself no longer.”
― C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

“هناك أناس ولدوا هكذا على جسر معلق. جاءو إلى العالم بين رصيفين وطريقين وقارتين. ولدوا وسط مجرى الرياح المضادة, وكبروا وهم يحاولون أن يصالحوا بين الأضاد داخلهم”

“الأشياء الأجمل، تولد احتمالا... و ربما تبقى كذلك.”
